I really like this shot, for lots of reasons. I am fascinated by history and the marks it has left and this stone is a graphic illustration of days gone by. The image itself is top notch and the high contrast BW conversion suits it perfectly.

Super shot, it has a very Dickensian feel to it.
Kind regards Maria
